I hereby nominate Chad Rakoczy [1] to JDK Committer.


Chad has made 18 commits [2] in compiler and GC code over the years. Granting Chad the ability to push things without sponsoring would help his on-going contributions.


Votes are due by Wednesday, 2026-02-18, 00:00 UTC.


Only current JDK Committers [1] are eligible to vote on this nomination. Votes must be cast in the open by replying to this mailing list.
